If this was for the purpose of GDPR and not just informing users I don't believe your website is GDPR compliant. Thank you for being transparent however.
Look at what this case is about, Facebook and Google are saying if you want to use our service you need to enable tracking otherwise don't use our service.
This lawsuit states that Facebook and Google are not legally allowed to deny service.
>Definitely. Adhering to new regulations costs man hours and $, companies understandably would rather not be forced to comply. No grand conspiracy just long term bus dev.
The simpler explanation is that these ultra annoying pop-ups make it more likely for people to accept the ToS and allow the service to begin monetizing.
>To offer a non-dev perspective on Hn, it feels like tech companies are really trying to annoy us users with GDPR updates in an effort to nurture opposition to similar proposed regulations in the future. I hope it doesn't work.
You think businesses are that forward thinking? You think there is some grand conspiracy to annoy users so that they hate regulation?
So it seems like we will find out if GDPR means European users have a 'right' to use your service for free with this case.
If the EU rules against Google and Facebook here I suspect the EU will become a digital wasteland. Companies like Google and Facebook wont leave but you will probably be charged for usage.
